A cocktail reception begins at 6 p.m. and winners will be announced beginning at 7 p.m. Tickets to the 2017 Awards of Excellence reception are $30 for Atlanta Press Club members and $40 for non-members. Tickets may be purchased here.

Additionally, the Atlanta Press Club is proud to honor the 2017 Impact Award recipient, Nydia Tisdale, for her impact on the journalism profession and on the public in protecting access to public meetings.

The winner of the Atlanta Press Club Impact Award is a Georgian (not necessarily a journalist) who had a significant impact on the journalism profession in the previous calendar year and has furthered the mission of the APC, which is focused on fostering journalistic excellence and advancing the public’s understanding of a free press.
